AI Governance & Responsible AI · AI Engineer · Product & Brand Strategist Lagos, Nigeria
I work at the point where AI systems get built and where they get governed. My background covers AI product management, AI engineering, brand strategy, and data science, which means I can sit in a model review and a governance review without switching vocabularies.
Current focus:
- AI governance and risk management
- Responsible AI and governance-by-design
- Operational AI oversight and monitoring
- Translating AI policy into product and engineering requirements
I write on this at Mission to Scale, covering agentic system failure modes, adversarial robustness, and the institutional gaps that show up once AI systems are already deployed. Twelve-plus articles, over a thousand subscribers.
